Comment: Did not experience any physiological changes after taking Aubra. Same weight, same skin (skin was already pretty clear), same sex drive, same mood. I experienced break through bleeding for 17 days, but once it went away my periods became short, light, and painless (I used to suffer from nauseating cramps). Have been taking this birth control for over 5 years now.

Comment: I began taking Aubra for a month and a half until my side effects got so bad I had no choice but to stop. I felt amazing for the first month besides minor mood swings.

Comment:I began taking Aubra for a month and a half until my side effects got so bad I had no choice but to stop. I felt amazing for the first month besides minor mood swings. It made me breakout more than usual, but nothing to major. By the second month, I began to have chest pain and extreme nausea to the point I couldn't eat more then once a day. It made me extremely anxious, I had to cancel everything for 4 days because I couldn't leave my house. I constantly felt like I needed to go to the ER. I have never felt so sick in my life, I was so lightheaded I thought I would pass out about 5 times a day, which made it really hard to go about daily life. I wish I could've made it past the third month, but the benefits are way less then the quality of life I felt. Hide Full Comment

Comment:when I first started taking this medication, I really hated it. It made me break out really bad, and my breasts were probably constantly sore for three months straight, my mood swings were horrible. But as soon as my body adjusted to the medication everything got much better. It’s actually a really great pill for me now. My acne is gone for the first time in my life! The only time I break out is if I miss a pill or something. My mood swings fixed themselves, and now my breasts are never sore ever. Even on my period, which is a first. Give this medication a few months to work itself out in your body; especially if you’re trying to get rid of hormonal acne.Hide Full Comment
